Older versions of boost (before 1.35) on linux did not provide boost_system so we had to be careful not to try to link to it, while on OSX linking was required for boost_filesystem to work.

Our scons scripts now do in some places:
```
if env['HAS_BOOST_SYSTEM']:
libraries.append(system)
```

But not all, so this needs to be cleaned up. Since we require at least boost 1.41 now in master (and soon likely 1.47) we can now depend on boost_system across the board.
